644 PM PDT Wed May 22 2024

Forecast is based on forecast start time of 1900 PDT on May 22.

Service.

.DISCUSSION...Windy conditions will continue early this evening.
Gustiness should come to an end after 8 PM, and winds will calm
early tonight (9-10 PM) as an upper level disturbance exits
the area. After a cold start, Thursday will be mainly sunny with
warmer and drier weather with weaker, seasonable winds. A trough
will move in Friday into early Saturday. This will lead to an
increase in cloudiness but bring little chances of precipitation
to the burn site (about 10% chance for a light shower Friday
afternoon and evening), but will lead to an uptick in afternoon
breeziness. Winds will be lighter compared to today, however.
